Any thoughts on the spell changes in the new UA?
I think the Guidance and Resistance changes are long overdue, though you could still spam Guidance all day if you wanted to; that may cause some heartburn at many tables. I think Spiritual Weapon and Banishment will be the more controversial spell changes (with maybe Aid thrown in by some).
Personally, I think the Spiritual Weapon one was a bit overdue, as running that along with Spirit Guardians was almost mandatory. Yet one could argue that Spirit Guardians was the one that needed to be reigned in and Spiritual Weapon is now overshadowed by the 1st level Bless, as they are both competing for concentration. Should Bless have been toned down?
Having seen Guidance and Resistance, do we think True Strike and possibly Blade Ward will follow the same pattern?
